The soldiers were waiting for the legend to greet them. William Mackenzie then smiled, "You guys, go back to your seats again!" "Remember, you're still on the plane," Bill continued, warning. Actually, they could have reused their bus that was parked at the border area earlier. However, the crown prince of the Fleshy Kingdom lent them their airplane to take them back to the Ans De Lou Kingdom as a favor. Thus, they could now relax a little more before returning home. Obediently, all of Bill's men sat back down in their respective places. Bill, who was now standing, began to say, "You know who I am now, but there is one thing I want to ask you." The hundred soldiers listened carefully. There was nothing more rewarding for them to meet the great legend again. "You are the only ones who know my true identity, along with my face that was previously hidden behind a mask." Bill paused again, sweeping his gaze over the soldiers who were now looking at him seriously. "Right now I wa
"Secretary of the palace, losing or winning a war is a common thing." Bill answered without stopping walking. "How could you lose?" Amanda replied in disbelief. Bill again replied casually, "I'm only a human, Amanda. Of course I can lose." Amanda shook her head, "No way. You ... never lose at all. I don't believe anyone can beat you. You ... oh, tell me what happened exactly?" Bill said again, "Let's just say he's better than me." "How can anyone be better than you? I've never found one. A God of Death like you can lose? That's impossible," Amanda added, looking incredulous. But then Amanda quickly shut her mouth and realized that many of William Mackenzie's soldiers were listening to her. She suddenly panicked. She said, "Bill. I didn't mean to." However, Andrew Reece said in a soothing tone, "You don't need to worry, Palace Secretary. All the soldiers who went with the general already know his true identity. Hearing Andrew Reece's words, Amanda gaped in shock. She stammere
"Are you sure you can win over that small kingdom, General Gardner?" Keannu asked, wanting to make sure. Jody Gardner immediately replied with confidence, "Of course, Your Majesty. I will get the victory that General Stewart could not." Keannu Wellington looked satisfied at Jody Gardner's answer. However, despite this, Keannu still felt that something was very off. While the young king was thinking, Bill spoke up again, "Your Majesty, why do you insist on defeating that kingdom? Wouldn't it be better to face another kingdom, Your Majesty? Why spend money on that war?" "For what? Have you forgotten that our defeat was your fault, General Stewart?" Jody Gardner said. Keannu asked Jody Gardner to shut up, while he replied, "Then, what is your solution to this problem, General Stewart? You have already lost to the Fleshy Kingdom. What can you do now?" William Mackenzie was pleased that his king was provoked. "Your Majesty, I did lose to that one kingdom. But, that doesn't mean I w
However, Bill certainly wasn't going to let Jody win over him so he said, "Oh, I forgot one thing. Everyone has their own way of dealing with defeat." Jody, who had been happy, was now upset again. The nearly thirty-six-year-old said, "Your Majesty, please give me some time to rest. After that, I will make my contribution to this kingdom." With no further questions asked, Keannu immediately understood what William Mackenzie was saying. The viceroy replied, "Yes, you may rest as you wish." "Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty. In that case, I request permission to leave the palace for some time with my wife," Bill said. Keannu was about to shout out his objections but he knew he couldn't do it. Bill's gaze clearly did not allow him to do so. So, Keannu couldn't help but say, "Yes, I'll let you." Bill smiled with satisfaction and immediately retreated from the palace hall. He also asked Andrew Reece to convey his day of rest and gave his soldiers the freedom to do as they
However, Andrew Reece suddenly remembered that he had no right to interfere in the matter. "It goes without saying," Andrew interrupted. Mark Donovan, who was ready to launch his idea, looked up in surprise, "Why, sir?" "It's not right." Andrew stood up, giving Mark a tired look. "What's not right?" "It's not fair to General Mackenzie, but we don't know what he might think either." Andrew paused for a moment, "Because when you think about it, he is a major general. It would be very easy for him to leave this palace and not come back." It was as if Mark Donovan had just been hit over the head with a hammer. He also came to his senses. "Oh my, you're right. Even if he doesn't come back, no one will dare to fight him. Not even King Keannu would be able to resist him. If General Mackenzie insists on staying in this palace, then he has a purpose," Mark explained. Andrew nodded. "In that case, just let things play out as they should." "So, we'll just wait for the general to retur
"I think so, Gramps," Shirley said. Christopher smiled suddenly, "Then maybe that person really does have a problem with Bill." George frowned, "Isn't that great, Grandpa? If that person makes trouble, we can just spice it up, right?" The old grandfather nodded happily, "You're right. Oh, what a shame. It turns out we're not the only ones who hate that loser." Shirley responded, "I can't forget what he did. I won't let him have any fun at all." It was of course related to the gift she received from Bill that day. Sometimes she couldn't believe that the damn gift could cause her to lose a husband. "Never mind, we'll pay him back. He may be happy this time but I'm sure it won't last long, trust me," George assured his sister. Meanwhile, Bill was casting a questioning look at Andrew Reece who could only gulp in guilt. "The General will definitely kill me," Andrew said. Mark responded, "It's not our fault he insisted on coming." "That's right, sir. After all, King Keannu allowe
For a few seconds Jody Gardner looked petrified as he heard Bill's words. The words were spoken in a voice so cold and piercing that he almost shivered. Jody even felt his throat dry up so badly that he couldn't swallow at all. It was strange. It was the first time he did it after he met that man. What happened actually? He felt frightened just by hearing that voice. He began to wonder, where did this fear that gripped him so much come from? It felt like he had never felt so scared in his entire life. However, as he began to remember something, his eyes widened in shock. His fear made him remember of one person. William Mackenzie. The only person who could make him shudder in horror and submit to his orders. Only that great general could make him unable to move. Jody also turned his gaze and looked at the eyes that were staring at his intently. "No. You ... can't be him," Jody said hoarsely. His voice had returned but not his courage. He was even afraid that he was now
"You ... must be drunk, for you to talk like this," Andrew said suddenly. Sean was eager to argue, but he was silent for a moment. Andrew said, "Just so you know, not everyone can become a soldier. Don't you also know how difficult the tests you went through to get to this stage are, Sean?" "How can you say now that you don't want the life of a soldier? Are you out of your mind?" Andrew continued. Sean was silent for an instant. The young man looked down deeply, as if he had just been slapped so hard. Meanwhile, Howard and Mark seemed to be revived by a splash of cold water. "Didn't you say a while ago that you were so happy to be in General Mackenzie's army?" Andrew asked and he seemed to have lost his temper. He looked at the three in turn and finally said, "If only General Mackenzie had listened to what you said earlier, he would have been very disappointed." "No, sir." Sean said quickly. "I'm sorry. I've done wrong," Sean said quickly with an overwhelming sense of guilt.
